town, who were never forgotten by his po- etic pen while he was at college. He had several young lady correspondents, and among them one bright particular star--a Coventry girl-with the winsome name of Alice Adams, whom he thought to wed. She had lived many years at the Hale mansion, and to her while at college he be- came betrothed. And who could chide his fancy-for Alice was fair, artless slip of girl-petite, mild hammered and grace full, hazel eyes and pink complexion, and as lovely in character as in physique-the admired of all sitters in high places who could appreciate her worth.
 r But, alas in those days, also it often happened that the course of young love didn't run smoothly, and in this instance, tho our knight was as valiant in love as in war, the old folks thought the young cou- pie too youthful to become affianced; be- sides, studying up genealogies, found a tie of relationship, tho not consanguinous, but which, according to their notions, ought to separate them. Afterwards Alice married MT. Elijah Ripley, thriving dry goods man of our town, who Idied Dec, 1774, leaving Mrs. Ripley widow in her 18th year. Then, true to first loves, Ma than and Alice became re-engaged, and re. mained so till the formers untimely death. l '4+e%l MAY RYE.

 Hartford Times As an illustration of the free-land doctrine, we may report an incident that occurred in this city. A gentleman had planted a garden at consid- erable expense, end found his vegetables eaten up as fast as they grew. A little in vestlgation disclosed the fact that Nor wegian goat had been put into his premnis es every night. The goat had spoiled a peartree and used up the vegetables, and he was put into the town pound. It cost the owner 12t cents to get him out, and this was looked upon by the owner of the goat, who had let down the bars and at night led his goat into the premises at least fifteen times, as gross piece of op- pression. He said of the owner of the gar den, He ish Von d--d schoundrel- tam villaim-he oppress the poor-he grind lem in the dust wid his heel, cause he's rich.

EMPOWERING SUoCFss. It is the duty of ev- cry person who has used Boschee's German Syrnp to let it's wonderful qualities be known to their friends in curing consumption, severe Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No person can use it without immediate relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and we consider it the duty of all druggists to recommend il to the poor, dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 80,00O dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such medicine as the Ger. man Syrup cannot be too widely known. Ask your druggist about it. Sample bottles to try, sold at 10 cents. Regular size, 7t cents. Sold by all druggists and dealers, ir the United States and Canada.

THE DALLAS AND TEXAR-
KAMA BOYS.
A Bad Feeling Created by the
News, HarmOniOusly Ad-
.justed by the Herald.

The followingis is from the Texarkana
Times:
The Times thinks it has unwit-
tingly done the Dallas base ball club,
which was in this city some time ago,
an injustice. The DALLAS HERALD
of Monday evening, contains the fol-
lowing paragraph.
The Dallas News pokes fun at the Tex
al rkana club which defeated the Dallas nine
last Sunday week, at which the Dallas boys
take exceptions. They say they were treat
ed handsomely by the Il xarkana club and
any reflection on them is uniair.-Herald.
This being the case. the Times has
tens to make the amende honorable by
apologizing to the Dallas club for the
severe structures it made upon them
few days ago. We, of course, were
misled by the Dallas News. The
News either received its false lnfor-
nation from some one outside of the
Dallas cub, or else maliciously misrep-
resented the matter itself. But 1t
makes no difference now that the Dal-
las club has repudiated the lies which
were told on our boys, and the Times
CuctIluliy IctIdCI5 tuc hdioh Woiuo ~
said about them, and extends to them
a cordial invitation to come to see us
again, promising to treat them royalty
should they accept the invitation.
Notwithstanding the defeat which
the Dallas ball players sustained at the
hands of the Texarkana boys, there
was not one of them upon their return
did not speak in the highest terms of
the courtesy with which they were re-
ceived and treated while in Texarkana;
barring the defeat it was delightful
trip, and the entertainment which they
received was all that could be desired.
The Dallas boys hope to reciprocate
in the near future and the HERALD
can assure the Texarkana boys that
when they come to Dallas they will be
entertained royalty.

meets this afternoon at 4 o'clock to
elect officers and transact other busi-
ness Of importance. They will make
out program at once and begin ar

race exhibitions ever witnessed in the

The onfederate Home Concert.

The concert in which so many OF
the ladies and gentlement of Dallas,
several musicians of Waco and the
Ripanska sisters, of Sherman, partici-
pated, aided and assisted by Prof
Henry Frees, proved great financial
failure, if one is to judge from the
bills unpaid and waiting for returns
from the country. 1t is understood
that those who managed the concert
and the musicians hold bills against
the management to the amount OF
1880 one of the canvassers claims that
he has not been paid for his services
TO the amount of $50, and the cost ol
the opera house $500 is yet unpaid
All this is very unfortunate. The
ladies and gentlemen who gave their
time gratuitously are much disap'
pointed at the termination of the af
fair.
